Everyone is asking me if we are getting vaccinated before we go. Is this Necessary? Idk even what we would need.

If traveling from the US, no vaccinations required.
Wouldn't hurt to get a tetanus shot if you haven't had one in ten years...just sayin..

When you return from your trip you will have a common ailment known as PNS (post Negril Syndrome). The only known vaccine is to book another trip!

Well I am in the healthcare industry so I'm not worried about my vaccinations. God knows I would catch anything in this industry however , I have had my tetanus shot and my flu shot him and I already have the syndrome we know we are going to want to go back and already anticipate ongoing back in March lol. The thought of only being able to spend two weeks their antiphon of coming home is already making me sad. So maybe will just go and get his tetanus shot and then should be good.
What about the water ? I've been told its okay and that it isn't? So which is it?
Personally, in 30 years of traveling and living all around Jamaica I can say that I have never been sick from drinking the water. It sometimes tastes a little "crappy" to me but, nonetheless safe to drink. I, however, choose to drink bottled water most of the time for it's better taste.
The Water Systems of Jamaica are one good legacy of English Rule.
